taro ki chao tale shamma parawane mile
hoya kurban meri jan mile dil se dil jale
taro ki chao tale shamma parawane mile
haye taro ki chao tale shamma parawane mile

husan ke andaj hai mashoor janhan me
main haseen hu isliye hai noor jaha me
dekh ke mujhko kisi shayar ne kaha tha
utari hai asma se koi noor jaha me
are tune suna hi nahi fir apna fasana
are ishq jise chahe bana dale diwana
ho dekh ke mujhko to bhi tune kaha tha
tere liye chhod du me sara zamana
chalta koi zor nahi shokh
nigaho ka haseen raag jab chale
taro ki chao tale shamma parawane mile

dil se meri aaj nikalo to kahu me
badhti dhadkasno ko chupa lo to kahu me
dekh liya mane tumeh mast najar se
dagmagate paw sambhalo to kahu me
are teri nigaho ko kaha jam humne
charche kiye tere subha sham humne
kya tu hai or kya teri ye mast adaye
tujhko haseena ka nam diya humne
tham le mehtab jigar rukht ye nakeb
agar chhod ke gai
taro ki chao tale shamma parawane mile

jane jaha shamma e mehfil bana diya
aji humne tumeh pyar ke kabil bana diya
hum jo na hote to tumeh kon puchta
humko duaye do tumeh kabil bana diya
sun zara o bekhabar kya tujhko khabar
hai zindagi teri to meri ek najar
hai man liya ishq bhi hai ek kayakash
husan se lagta to kayamat ko bhi
dar hai jaan ki to parwah na kare
dil jala jal jal ke mare shamma jab jale
taro ki chao tale shamma parawane mile
hoya kurban meri jan mile dil se dil jale
taro ki chao tale shamma parawane mile

Beneath starlight's velvet drape, moth and flame entwined,
My soul surrenders, a heart consumed, two kindred flames aligned.
Beneath starlight's velvet drape, moth and flame entwined,
My soul surrenders, a heart consumed, two kindred flames aligned.

Beauty's grace, a world renowned, its whispers carried far,
I am beauty, a light alight, a celestial star.
A poet's words, a whispered plea, as eyes met mine,
"A vision from the heavens, a soul so divine."
But you, you never heard my tale, my heart's deep art,
Love's embrace can turn the sane to madness of the heart.
And when you saw my face, your words did chime,
"For you, I'd leave the world behind, transcend all time."
No power can restrain the gaze, when passion's song takes flight,
Beneath starlight's velvet drape, moth and flame ignite.

If you speak from your heart, then I might,
If you hide your rapid beat, then I might,
I have beheld your gaze so deep,
If you steady your steps, then I might.
You were never drunk on my eyes, never known
My morning and night, my life, my own,
What are you? What is your charm?
We gave you a beautiful name.
Hold the moon, the heart, the face, this veil of night,
if she leaves
Beneath starlight's velvet drape, moth and flame ignite.

O, beloved, a lamp in the gathering, that's what you became,
We made you worthy of love, a burning flame.
If not for us, who would have noticed?
Give us your blessings, we made you a name.
Listen, oh unaware, what do you know?
Your life is but a glance from me, a light to show.
Love is a longing, it is a mystery, a fight,
Beauty can even scare the dawn of the night.
Don't worry about life,
the heart burns and burns as the flame burns
Beneath starlight's velvet drape, moth and flame entwined,
My soul surrenders, a heart consumed, two kindred flames aligned.
Beneath starlight's velvet drape, moth and flame entwined.
